And five cubits [was] the one wing of the cherub
When stretched out on one side:

and five cubits the other wing of the cherub;
on the other side him:

1 Kings 6:24 In-Context

22 So he overlaid with gold the whole interior of the temple, until everything was completely finished. He also overlaid with gold the entire altar that belonged to the inner sanctuary.

23 In the inner sanctuary he made two cherubim, each ten cubits high, out of olive wood.

24 One wing of the first cherub was five cubits long, and the other wing was five cubits long as well. So the full wingspan was ten cubits.

25 The second cherub also measured ten cubits; both cherubim had the same size and shape,

26 and the height of each cherub was ten cubits.
